Waymo's autonomous rideshare service enters testing phase in L.A., may roll out here soon

That's what the company Waymo is betting on as it prepares to roll out its fully autonomous rideshare service in Los Angeles.

"L.A.'s the deadliest major city in the U.S. for traffic violence. It's the reason why we have the highest number of fatalities on record last year," said Damian Kevitt, the executive director and founder of Streets Are For Everyone. "Something has to change in terms of the amount of traffic violence and the amount of fatalities.

Riding in Waymo, you don't have to worry about whether your drive will be distracted by his or her cell phone. Or whether they'll get angry, tired, or whether or not they're be sober.

Great way to make money when it rams into you on the freeway

are they still in testing phases in Phoenix (Arizona) and San Francisco (California) ? when will they receive permits from local city governments ? from my understanding, rideshare service is only available in a limited area in each city ...

I want to try this service the next time I want to rideshare 📱
